This is fairly basic, and guest codes of this part are rarely changed.
However maybe it's something good to have to make APIC tests more
complete.

 I wrote this for fun, in case we want to have this... so I posted. :)

/initial/interval/

You'll loop forever if you don't get the interrupt. You may want to
adjust the timeout for this test in the unittests.cfg file, or add
a sufficiently large trial counter in order to give up, failing the
test.

Since you're using a counter in the interrupt handler, instead of
just a boolean, then you may also wish to test that the counter is
exactly 1, i.e. that the oneshot timer isn't injecting too many
interrupts.

Here I mean "Initial Count Register" below. I should use the full
term.

Yes. I would prefer to tune the timeout. I see that the NMI test might
take seconds to complete on my laptop. Maybe 30 seconds a good choice?
I assume the default is 90s.

Right. Will do.
